Had an HFI hiccup at the start, the pause in the middle was where I jumped off after hitting gravel trying to avoid a pedestrian and his dog. Didn’t fall, just ran it off.
Had two reported BT disconnects, but seemingly this didn’t affect recording.
Just wondering about the HFI setup though, I don’t see where you toggle it on / off?
@rpasichnyk what kind of range is reasonable in the metro pro i get a lot of disconnections with phone in my pocket during rides and with board on charge with my phone on the sofa 5m away
My other metro pro with small antenna works at the other end of the garden fine 30m away no disconnections.
Can you take a picture how it is positioned? So the one you are talking about is a Metr Pro UNITY and the other one is a standard Metr Pro with small external antenna?
Bluetooth spec says 33ft minimum supported distance and personally never had an issue connecting throughout my apartment to bluetooth things (there are some dead zones behind certain walls or big appliances), but like others are saying this seems unexpected to say the least. Would verify you have a solid connection between the module and the vesc, could maybe reinforce with some sort of hot-glue or silicone. Something you can glob onto the connector to make sure it’s not shaking loose or something similar… it seems unlikley, now that I’m writing it too but just not sure what else to try… does it disconnect only when riding or also when walking say 20ft away with clear line of sight?
To everyone that ordered a Metr Pro module in the last couple of days or who is planning to order a module in the near future, please notice that there could be COVID-19 based shipping delays depending on your country. At the moment Deutsche Post (local shipping company) will not deliver goods for an example to the US or Canada because of COVID-19.
We try to ship orders from Sweden but regulations can change every day at the moment so please keep in mind that there could be some unforeseen delays when you are ordering now.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
